I currently have an AT9 dish and an H20 receiver. I live in the Greensboro, NC market so I get my local HD's through the dish. I'm trying to see if a multiswitch would help me. I would like to add a DVR and 3 more rooms to my account. I was told that a DVR with dual tuners requires 2 feeds from the dish, which would only leave me with 2 free feeds for the other 3 rooms. Can a multiswitch help me? If so how do they work? Thanks, Todd
 
If you need more than 4 satellite connections you will need the WB68 multiswitch. You will connect the four RG6 cables from the dish to one side of the multiswitch and the other side of the multiswitch has 8 connections that you can use to connect to your DirecTV receivers.
 
That sounds easy enough. I just wanted to make sure I wouldn't lose any local HD's by using a multiswitch. I didn't think I would, but I wanted to ask the pros. Thanks again.
